Woody,
I remember you mentioning the Pitt Rivers museum in another post, but I missed it when I was there. (Typical tourist!) I also remember the Ashmolian as being mostly unremarkable in general, except for the above-mentioned carvings. (Don't they have some Elgian marbles, though?) I think its claim to fame is that it is the world's first established museum, as museums are defined today. But if you find anything of interest for us all, please post.

Cheers!
